Abstract

Ayurveda has gained global recognition for its holistic approach to health and its minimal side effects. Ayurvedic herbal and herbo-mineral formulations are widely used to treat chronic and degenerative diseases with little to no adverse effects. These herbo-mineral preparations combine herbs, minerals, and metals, such as Bhasmas, to address chronic conditions and have proven their effectiveness over time. This study aims to highlight the role of Navayasa Lauha, a prominent herbo-mineral preparation, and explore its utility in the management of various diseases.
